I've bitten the bullet and got our local handyman to come round with his SDS drill to drill them all in for me. For £30 (I hope it won't take more than an hour) should work out well. And one less project on my list!

Probably a bit late now but I would have invested in a SDS. You’re half way there for a titan from Screwfix which has served me well. It is a massively useful bit of kit to have. 

IMHO, Titan is too big, heavy and too powerful for basic DIY needs. Something like

would be more appropriate.

You guys are naughty, I've gone and purchased it. Will use the handyman's hour to help me out with a few other tasks! Another tool on the pile.

(I usually buy Makita and have 12v and 18v batteries which brings the cost down, but after the MacAllister jigsaw I bought sufficed for the laminate flooring project I thought why not buy again on a secondary drill. Still love my Makitas though!)
